The Sermon on the Mount summarizes Jesus' radical, non-religious stance on spiritual living. By encouraging us to behave meekly, not to stockpile food and money for the future, and not to fight back when someone does you wrong, it remains a radical spiritual writing even today. In this age where so many are fighting, yelling, arguing, storming, and rioting in the name of deeply held beliefs, how practical is that guidance in our world? Rich Tafel, Pastor of Church of the Holy City in Washington DC and host Johnny Guidry discuss the Sermon on the Mount and its modern-day application from a spiritual, non-religious perspective.
